Response to an unfathomable action statement made by another person. The respondent simply and sternly explains this will not take place. Ex: son is not allowed somewhere, but tells his parents, "I'm going anyways!" The parents may respond with, "like hell you are!" Respondent may feel the person had a lot of 'nerve' to say such a thing.
Lover tells their partner during an anniversary they are going to a club instead of spending it with them. Their partner would respond "like hell you are!" Meaning you aren't going, period.
